About the Listing 55701 - 3395700

You step down into the living room at 447 Orange Street, and the house does the talking. The room is sunken, the way English cottages are, and it pulls you in: a stone fireplace that asks for a rainy evening, stone walls around you, nearly ninety years of history settling into the quiet. This is not a house that looks like the ones around it. Built in 1937, this stone cottage was made to be loved, and it still is. Outside, the cottage earns its storybook reputation. Flagstone paths wander through the gardens of a 0.66-acre double lot, and an English garden, the kind most people only see in books and old photographs, gives you a place for first coffee, a good book, and the long light at the end of the day. It is a rare amount of land for a home this close to town. Across 2,206 square feet, wide-plank white oak and slate carry you from room to room, giving the home its warmth and its age. The kitchen is where old craft meets the new: cabinetry refaced with Amish-crafted shaker-style fronts, quartz counters, a farmhouse sink, and slate floors, with a built-in nook just off it where coffee turns into conversation. Two fireplaces give the house its heart on cold Pennsylvania nights. Four bedrooms and one and a half baths keep the home's original character, some still dressed in period wallpaper, and a finished, heated space on the lower level gives you room to spread out in every season. Behind the charm, the important work is done: natural gas heat, on-demand hot water, updated electrical service, replacement windows, and a new sewer line to the street, all on public water and sewer. The original blueprints are still in the house and convey with it, a keepsake for whoever is next. And then there is Norry. Northumberland, Pennsylvania was founded in 1772 where the North and West Branches of the Susquehanna River meet, and it still moves at a gentler pace. Tree-lined streets invite an evening walk past old homes that have earned their age. Music in the Park on summer evenings. Homes like this do not follow the pattern of what is around them, and they do not come up often. The house has already lived a long story. It is ready for someone to keep telling it. Come see it in person.
